billsrobb Posted November 30, 2007 #2 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I was on the Nov 2 sailing of the Volendam and yes they had Clamato juice so enjoy your Ceasers. I had never heard of them till I met a couple from Edmonton and they introduced me to Ceaser. Love them. Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdkempton Posted November 30, 2007 #4 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Oh, I love Ceasers also. I hope they have Clamato on all the HAL ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen H Posted November 30, 2007 #5 Share Posted November 30, 2007 We had clamato juice on the Rotterdam on our Oct. 2006 Med cruise. Had the opportunity to introduce yet another non-Canadian to the experience of a Caesar and gave him more when he visited us in Canada this summer. We are introducing the world to this drink one port at a time. It's a tough assignment, but we will work through the pain. I remember on our last flight to Britain the flight attendant gave us a few cans to take with us in case we couldn't find clamato juice. Yes, that was Air Canada.

peaches from georgia Posted November 30, 2007 #11 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I didn't know Bloody Caesars were supposed to be a secret and a Canadian drink. Clamato juice is in all our supermarkets and caesars a well-known drink anyplace we've ever been for years. Also on all the HAL ships we've been on. Love 'em.

I've heard that they were invented in Calgary years and years ago. Don't know if it's true. I remember maybe 5 years ago it could be difficult to get a caesar in Vegas. Glad to see it's more readily available. It's one of my favorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warren peas Posted December 1, 2007 #13 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Sounds like Clamato is actually an American invention, but you can figure it took a Canuck to figure out it would taste even better with some booze mixed in. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clamato Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad to see it said this in the link you provided and it wasn't something that someone made up. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, Clamato Juice had been sold in the Supermarkets here for what seems like forever, so "Happy Retirees" you should not have too much of a problem finding it.

maxout Posted December 1, 2007 #17 Share Posted December 1, 2007 History The cocktail was invented by bartender Walter Chell at the Owl's Nest Bar in the Calgary Inn (now Calgary Westin Hotel) in Calgary, Alberta in 1969, to accompany the opening of a new restaurant, Marco's. In its original form, it contained tomato juice and mashed clams; Clamato had only just been released (with the assistance of Chell) by the American Mott's company that very year, and was not yet widely known or available. Starting in 2002, Mott's began marketing pre-mixed Caesars in twelve-ounce bottles. Variations can include substituted or added ingredients, like salt and pepper, cayenne pepper, horseradish, or lemon juice, seasoning salt or lemon pepper (rather than celery salt), a garnish of dill pickled cucumber, spicy pickled green bean or asparagus. Occasionally a prawn (especially in seafood restaurants) or crisp bacon is used as a garnish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most devotees would agree, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobBeaSea Posted December 1, 2007 #19 Share Posted December 1, 2007 My favourite Motts for Caesars is the "Extra Spicy" version :). There are places in the U.S. very familiar with Caesars....the difference is we Canucks like to drink 'em in the morning as well. Nothing like a Caesar to get each day of a vacation underway :D.

Most devotees would agree, I think. I'm sorry, I don't know. I have never bought the stuff but I will check next time I go to the supermarket. I think that we have Mott's Apple Juice here, but then again I am a cranberry juice drinker. Valerie:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
